I have a special announcement I would love to share with you, including a fantastic gift to say thank you to my readers.
Thank you for downloading this book and supporting an independent author. I really appreciate it.
I have always loved making crafts. As a kid, I learned how to crochet from my Nanny Short when I was just young. Now that I have two daughters of my own, we spend lots of time making crafts, researching how to do a certain craft, or even making our own greeting cards, and gifts.
Not only do I love making crafts, but Christmas is one of my favorite times of the year. I love the whole season leading up to Christmas. I usually start in mid-October with baking all of my familys favorite Christmas treats. I load up the freezer full of yummy desserts and then take a tray of mixed cookies, chocolates, and squares to everyones house that we visit during the holidays.
Every Christmas, my daughters and I plan what we will give each person as a Christmas present and think of gifts that we can make ourselves. We spend our fall weekends making gifts for others or making Christmas ornaments for our tree. We have so much fun!
I hope you will enjoy some fun crafting days either on your own, with some friends, or with the children in your life this year. Note that, if you are planning to make some of these crafts with children, some of these projects will require some assistance or supervision by an adult or an older child. Note also that four of these projects require some basic wood working skills, such as cutting wood with an axe, or a table saw, or using a drill to drill some holes into some wood pieces.
My goal was to create a book that would appeal to all types of crafters and future crafters:
- people with cooking or baking experience
- people with woodworking experience
- people with sewing experience
- even people with no crafting experience!
I hope you enjoy and try something new and maybe even try a craft that is outside of your comfort level. Happy crafting!
